1200 is considered intermediate. At least that’s the provisional rating given to me when I decided to choose “intermediate” when I joined.

You are what you believe you are for you.

 

People with talent will have a higher rating, people without talent lower.  Can't judge people just on rating. A rating could represent hard work for a no talent person, but a first time playing for talented.

What is a 1400-1500? I'd appreciate if you had a look at one of my games if you have any tips I'd appreciate it. I still feel like a beginner also kinda

It’s still in the intermediate range. The starting provisional rating a person would get if they picked advanced when they joined would be 1600. Personally, I would consider 1600 to still be around the intermediate range and maybe around 1750, give or take, to be advanced.

1200 is really good and indicates talent if you’re really a “beginner”, I.e. just started to play.

I could be wrong, but I think Bird’s Opening might be a bit weaker at higher levels. Some of your games you seem to have neglected fully developing your pieces.
